Around here, it tends to be discouraged. Usual reasons apply: you're a

unwary pedestrians, particularly kids.
Heck, most places I'm aware of tend to require most vehicular traffic -
cars, trucks, scooters, bikes, skateboards, etc, etc, etc, - stay on the
road.
Rationale seems to be it's okay if you want to risk your neck, not so much
if you want to risk other peoples' necks, and the folks in the cars are
somewhat less likely to get mangled by you running into them.

I see. Still, I'm a little surprised. While I personally don't think
riding on the sidewalk is a good idea, I would say that it is believed
by many that it is safer (particularly for children and other infirmed
